This comic was drawn for the Mini Comic Night Dune Fan Club (nothing to do with the book/movies!), a monthly cartoonist meetup facilitated by David Lasky. It started as a dancing tribute to Jules Feiffer and then kittens turned up, so less room for dancing!
I’ve been doing a lot of good work recently. In my creative and professional life around having a stronger voice and extending my comfort zone. Life can sometimes feel like a cycle of remembering and forgetting or maybe knowing truths in your body and forgetting.
I can still experience terrible anxiety sometimes, but I’m being bolder and forgiving myself for when I reality check. Sometimes I forget that it’s ok to be me, but then I remember again ^_^
Thanks to all my patrons and a special big extra thanks to Kate Webb, Erik Owomoyela, Stuart Barrow, Jesse the K, Brian Fies and Tracey Radford.
Two Kittens in Your Pocket Comic Transcript
Little Liz looks down at her chest and looks a little sad.
Little Liz: There are two truths that haunt my pockets.
Little Liz: They jump out at me like a scared kitten scratching my face.
A black cat is leaping mid-air, scratching Little Liz’s face.
Little Liz: I want to be seen.
A black cat walks on Liz’s head, claws digging in.
Little Liz: I’m scared of being seen.
A black cat has grabbed onto Liz’s face in slightly face-hugger style.
Little Liz: So I’m getting curious about my fear kittens.
Little Liz looks out at us and slightly smiles. She is framed by two black cats that are sitting and looking towards her.
